Luga, Luga, Luger

Enjoy some semi-glamour shots of my Luger....  I tried to show all the imperfections in the finish, along with the identification stamps.  Not horrible condition to be 98 years old.

Yeah.....right place at the right time for me. I walked into the local gun store one day right as the guy was leaving who left it at the store for a consignment sale. Evidently, neither of them knew what it was.

I hear these stories all the time. For me it is like finding bigfoot. No matter how hard I look, I never even come close.

They were. I think the last one sold for around a million dollars, then later for a half million. Looks like the bottom is falling out of that market, lol.

Yup. And don't forget, 45 versions of the Luger were made for the military trials when the 1911 was adopted. Savage also entered the trials with a scaled up pistol and mauser scaled up a variation of their 1910 pistol as well.

Here's a clip from a 2010 Guns and Ammo Magazine about the million dollar Luger.

What do you see wrong with it?

In the film Wall Street, entrepreneur Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) takes his rival, Sir Larry Wildman (Terence Stamp), on a tour of his mansion, to include his gun collection, where he reaches into the glass case, removes a handgun and says, “Rarest piston in the world—the .45 Luger.”

I am not sure I could make myself fire that gun. With my luck it would have a catastrophic failure while in my hands. lol

I'd rather have a 45 Savage.
